He needed a paranormal person - someone who could understand his issues, and who could handle staying with him long enough to appease his father. But when he spotted a cute human walk into the bar he was drowning his sorrows in, his tiger stirred. The human had paranormal friends. Unfortunately, Lex puts his big foot in his mouth within minutes of meeting Charlie. If it wasn't for Charlie's friends, his situation might have been worse. But when Terry and Zander, Sully and Q, and Roy and Richard all pitch in to help, Lex might have finally found a way to win his mate and get his father off his back for good. This is a short story of roughly 19,000 words, but it is complete. My regular readers will recognize the characters from my A&O books, Dancing Around the Cop and Change of Plans, however this book can be read as a standalone. This story has not changed from the Valentine Giveaway run through Prolific Works last month, so if you read it then, this is the same story. This is an MM true mates story including intimate scenes. It is intended for adults only.
